Your Brain Is Racist! [THOUGHT]
Well not quite, but our brains make us empathise with people of the same race. At least according to a report published in Journal Experimental Social Psychology. The study which was performed with a group of white men by asking them watch videos of Asian, black, and white men drinking a glass of water. As they watched the film clips the scientists monitored brain activity to see whether their brains mimicked the action. The result? The men's brains lit up most when watching someone of their own race. Not imperical data, but this much I'm convinced by, people are born with a tendency to group others on how like themselves they are ...that being said, "racism still alive, they just be concealing it!"

Drake - Find Your Love [MUSIC]
Probably the biggest non Justin Bieber record on the web right now. How do I feel about it? Very 808 & Heartbreak-esque...minus the heartbreak/auto-tune. Nevertheless, it is heartfelt. I just wish I couldn't really compare it to anything, which I suppose is difficult because Kanye did actually produce the track. That aside it's an effort that will ultimately allow big homie to maintain a buzz so big he could sell a blank disc this summer.
Do Right And Kill Everything to di woooorld!

Minority Report x Blu-Ray [MOVIES]
It was no more than a week ago that some friends and I were talking about Minority Report, and it being a on a list of our favourite films. A large chunk of it's appeal was due to the fact that this movie made the future look cool as fu*k! Watching this tech-thiller on Blu-Ray would be pretty dope by itself, but we also get bonus footage including a featurette going over the creation of many of the futuristic gadgets, as well as play-by-play with Steven Spielberg dissecting his film, in way I presume, only he can. Available now on ($20) Amazon.
iRetrofone Base [GADGETS]
I always tell people that I believe I'd be very comfortable living in the 50's or 60's...fine gaberdine, wing-tips, skinny ties, minus the hyper-bigotry it would be perfect. The iRetrofone Base will allow me to bridge that gap every time I make or receive a phone call...all I need is my iRetrophone Rotary Phone App and endless supply of top shelf whisky. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go call Bets!

Caribana 2010 Launch [SUMMER 2010]
With the launch of the 2010 Caribana campaign it is definitely time to start thinking about my favourite soca records (though there aren't a whole lot), dancehall anthems, hotel rooms, and perfecting my pelvic thrusts. Happening during the juciest part of the summer (July 15th to August 2nd), and having an estimated financial impact of $438-million dollars to the city of Toronto for 2009, without question this is going to be, as always, a festival of epic proportions. I have an older brother out in Virginia who has yet to check out T.O...I explained all of this to him last night, and he has assured me this will be the summer!

Rumor has it there is a chambray 5-panel that is part of this collection...that's about to be my by crown for the summer!
